Hi Everyone:

A little earlier today, Mat Sklansky and myself had a positive conversation with the top officials of Lock Poker. Here are the results:

1. Lock will voluntarily pull all banner ads and stop all promotions until the issues in question are resolved to our satisfaction.

2. The Lock Forum will stay open but will be operated in a support capacity with no emphasis on promotions.

3. A new Lock representative will come on here and give a more detailed explanation of how they currently see the issues and the steps they will be taking to get everything resolved.

4. This representative will take an active role in answering any questions that our posters may have.

Best wishes,
Mason

thank you Mason

I wonder if this means shane is no more.

Thank you very much Mason.

I'm sure we are all looking forward to seeing these processes commence.

Excellent, the only thing that matters is cashouts though. ROW need to be paid in <7 days, and they need to either provide proof about the players they have accused of committing fraud, or cash them out in a timely manner, no more runarounds about "affiliates driving price of lock funds down" without proof, they have slandered and impugned too many people already.

Thanks Mason

A very fair result.

Thanks Mason!

the inter-account transfer mess needs to be dealt with first. the actual cashout times are unfortunately the least of everyone's problems right now.

Mason-

To be clear this is a "lock" representative and not a "revolution" rep?

Thanks Mason. Can you tell us what sort of standards and expectations you have of Lock in the coming weeks and months?

Thanks Mason and 2+2.

Great work 2p2

And when I read that a new Lock representative would be coming soon it was very difficult to not start a gimmick called LockIdiTheNigerian

"Hello my friends"

care to elaborate if you make such a statement? if people need to be worried more about something else than the cashout times, then it's fair to say there's a huge problem.

Giving more insight on how transfers could have or did create such a mess would be great too, ofcourse.

What i basically mean is: there's a lot of confusion about this whole thing, the reasons why people can't cash out, how the transfers could be abused to such extent in the first place (although maybe explaining us may open the door to more people trying it out so maybe not a great idea either) but yeah, give us anything.

Im in this stupid p2p mess, cant even cash out a penny.

I commend you and 2 plus 2.

I said that they need to provide proof that the players in the transfer mess were committing fraud or cash them out in a timely manner. And cashout times are a problem, that's like saying well as long as they rescind all their policies about inter-account transfers, but now cashout times are >10 years from now there isn't a problem, there is still a problem.

Thank you for your proactive work with this.

Do you have any ETA as to when the new representative will reveal themselves in this forum?

new rep just gonna be shane with a new sn

Thanks Mason.

Is there any sort of time frame for this? edit: oops, too late

What exactly does "stop all promotions" entail? No more deposit bonuses? Rake races?

I'm going to assume he meant advertisement/"promotion" on 2+2. Grind for Glory WSOP prizes being removed wouldn't surprise me, but anything beyond that (like as u say rake race/deposit bonuses) definately would surprise me big time.

It means posting promotions on this site.

I really think Shane has forfeit with the week he got with everyone on 2+2. He almost didn't posted since 2 days...

We were told in the next 24 hours or so.

If his name is enahs be suspecious!

Mason,

Are you still accepting money for the Lock subforum?
